Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high humidity,
or moisture, condensing on the cool window glass.
This can be minimized if the climate control system is
used properly. There are two modes to clear fog or frost
from your windshield. Use the defog mode to clear
the windows of fog or moisture and warm the
passengers. Use the defrost mode to remove fog or
frost from the windshield more quickly.
Turn the right knob to select the defog or defrost mode.
-
(Defog): This mode directs air to the windshield
and the floor outlets. When you select this mode,
the system turns off recirculation and runs the air
conditioning compressor unless the outside temperature
is at or below freezing. The recirculation mode cannot
be selected while in the defog mode.
0
(Defrost): This mode directs most of the air to the
windshield and the side window outlets, with some
air directed to the floor outlets. In this mode, the system
will automatically turn off recirculation and run the air
conditioning compressor, unless the outside temperature
is at or below freezing. Recirculation cannot be
selected while in the defrost mode.
Do not drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.
